STANDARD COLORS

Available to any standard RAL Card upon request

SURFACE PREPARATION

The concrete or screed substrate must be hard, sound and free of dust and other barrier materials such as paint, lime coatings, plaster, curing agents, laitance, adhesive residues etc., that will inhibit adhesion to the substrate.

Use a suitable Degreaser to remove polish, wax, grease, oil and similar contaminating substances prior to mechanical preparation. Contaminated concrete surfaces should be mechanically prepared, either by scabbling, grinding or contained shot blasting equipment or similar, and be vacuumed clean prior to applying IF 2 E. Overwatered or otherwise weak concrete surfaces must also be suitably prepared down to sound, solid concrete by mechanical methods. Dust and other debris should be removed using vacuum equipment.
NOTE: Any joints or cracks in the concrete base where differential movement is anticipated e.g. movement joints, should be brought through to the finished surface and suitably sealed. New concrete slabs must be allowed to cure for at least 14 days.

MIXING

The individual contents of the IF 2 E should be thoroughly stirred before being mixed together. The entire contents of the PART B should be poured into the PART A and the two materials mixed thoroughly for at least 3 minutes using a heavy duty slow speed drill and spiral paddle. Some of the mixed components should be reintroduced back into the hardener container in order to activate any residue and then poured back into the larger mixing vessel and re-mixed for 30 seconds. Mixing in this way will ensure product consistency and that any resin that remains in the containers after application will cure to provide for easier waste disposal.

APPLICATION

Once mixed, the material should be spread over the floor as self-heating in the container will reduce working time. Apply using a brush or short/medium pile roller. One or more coats may be needed to ensure that a uniform coating is achieved and to compensate for differences in surface porosity.All movement joints in the sub-floor must be carried through the topping and properly sealed. Construction joints and cracks not subject to movement may be overlaid but should the floor move in anyway, these defects will reflect through the system. Isolation joints will need to be allowed f or in areas where high thermal movement is anticipated, e.g. around ovens and freezers.

CLEANING

IF 2 E can be removed from tools and equipment by using CLI Eco Sol 205 immediately after use. Any hardened material will need to be removed mechanically.

PROPERTIES

The values shown are typical of results obtained in the laboratory at 27 ± 1ºC. Actual performance values obtained on site may vary from those quoted.

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

IF 2 E should be allowed to cure prior to the installation of the final floor finish, typically 24 hours at 27 ± 1ºC.
